The Vice
President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, has said that All Progressive Congress (APC)
would do better in 2023 than it did at the 2019 general elections.

Osinbajo,
who expressed the optimism in Abuja after receiving the Situation Room Report
presented by the Presidential Support Committee (PSC), assured that the
leadership of the party would carefully study its content and use same to
review performance and plan ahead for subsequent elections.

The vice
president, who was represented by the party national legal adviser, Babatunde
Ogala, said the report would give insight into observed problems, particularly
why it performed below expectations in some areas.

“They are
documents that tried to catalogue events and monitor how the elections ran.
They will aid us in research, they will aid us in a better understanding on why
the election came out the way it did, they will aid us in planning for the
future, they will aid us in compiling data, so the use is enormous, we will
review what is contained therein and it will help us view our past and prepare
for the future,” Osinbajo added.

Earlier, the
PSC chairman, Engineer Ozi-Raji Williams, said the report would also serve as
evidence that could be tendered at the Supreme Court in defence of the
re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari.

“History has
it that most times, when a thing is credible, fair, in most cases, such results
are not welcomed, so we decided to go into monitoring and evaluation and the
situation room to ensure that at the time judgment is pronounced and the
opposition party says this is not right.

“We have
something to present, and say by what we presented, these are facts in the
field across the states and as such, nobody contends with proofs especially
when the evidence are beyond facts.”
